let's bring in krystal ball and abbey huntsman. thank you both for being here tonight. >> thanks, reverend. >> i can't hear. >> somebody has to fix abby's mic while we talk to you krystal. krystal, how does a growing economy impact the president's second term agenda? give me the politics of this. >> well, i think the very fact we're able to look at things like immigration reform and climate change is a sign it is getting better. considering how we came in and were falling off a cliff economically, there was little room for the public to embrace anything that they could see tangibly. the fact we now have space in our conversation to talk about things that are also critical and at their core are also economic issues. but it shows that we have come a long way in terms of economic impacts. and of course the other obvious thing here is republicans spent such a long time railing against the economy blaming the president for the economy. now we see that his policies have actually worked but they are moving us forward, that we are coming o

. >> so krystal, as a woman -- >> yes. >> right to choose -- >> yes. >> undue burden. what we heard from miss trotter is really an indication of feminist principles to uphold gun rights for specifically women. >> yeah. it's an attempt to use a liberal argument to advocate for no background checks, no assault weapons ban, the right to have an extended magazine. i also think there's an element of a caricature of a right wing republican caricature dying. the caricature has been democrats that want to take everyone's guns. they want to ban all guns. they want to make it so you cannot exercise your second amendment right at all. what you're seeing now as we're getting to the specifics of the policies, people saying background checks just makes sense. women can have guns if they want to have them, they just have to go through a background check. they should have to go through a background check. that's just common sense. does a woman really need an extended magazine to be able to defend herself properly if that's what she wants to do? and there's also an element, too, the in

krystal, moving on to chuck hagel. he's been described as you know as a homophobic anti-semitic lover of hamas. doesn't this come down to where he said this about the pentagon. it is bloated and needs to be pared down. that's his greatest sin isn't it? >> that is one of them. i think the other was questioning the iraq war and eventually coming out and opposing the iraq war and saying after he cast the vote in favor of the iraq war, coming back and saying you know what? this was the wrong move. that created a lot of animosity. and we have seen criticism from the left. i do want to see a confirmation process. i want to know how he'll behave towards lbgt members of the military. >> and he has already apologized for those statements. >> absolutely. absolutely. but the charges that -- i mean, the thing that has really been ludicrous is because he hasn't been with mccain and lieberman an every vote in israel, not only is his anti-israel, he's anti-semitic. i think that shuts down any debate on the topic. >> had a change of h

some gun laws that i think can work in tandem with mental health and one idea that i was talking to krystal about we came across and happens in new york city is, for example, in new york city to get a handgun permit, you have to get friend referrals, friends who recommend you for that responsibility. and it goes to mental health and that it gets around the loner idea. if you have to tell people you're looking to purchase a gun, and you're troubled, this gives you, you know, two or three opportunities for those check points and talks about that sense of community and societial responsibility again. what do you think? >> i like that. you know, i didn't know that was going on in new york. i read somewhere, i think maybe canada has something similar to that. >> i saw that, too. >> two or three recommendations. >> right. >> i think that's a great idea. of course, you know, it does -- it does mean you'll have to find out what your friends really think of you when push comes to shove and really trying to get a gun. i have thought for the same reason or for a different reason these waiting periods,
